So the wait between this this sigil and the last one, for Fostervilla wasn’t so bad, right?\u00a0 We’re once again looking at a sigil for a city that we’ve seen only once, but this one was the name of the story, so it gets points for that.\u00a0 And perhaps the most interesting thing for Searchlight is that I’m circling the idea of going back to the story the city is named after, and expanding on it enough for it to be released as a novella or novel.\u00a0 We’ll have to see where things land with that.<\/p>\n
Anyway, Searchlight is one of the most inclusive settlements in all of Tellest.\u00a0 While many races are at war with each other for various reasons, Searchlight exists as a sanctuary for people of all races to come and live in harmony.\u00a0 It’s a place where people can find a home with those who will love and appreciate them, and as such, the symbol of their town became the lighthouse that welcomed people to safety.\u00a0 That symbol also became their sigil.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n Here’s a fun fact for you: over the course of writing out this article, I realized that there wasn’t really a spot that was appropriately designated for Searchlight in Ravane, the continent that the story takes place in.\u00a0 So that’ll be something I’ll have to correct over the weekend\u2014and if all goes well and I don’t forget, you won’t even be aware the change was needed before you read this!<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The grey and white looks awesome on a flag, which I could see flying from the top of the very lighthouse it represents.\u00a0 The story, Searchlight<\/em>, took place some time in the past, so it wouldn’t be crazy to believe they have plenty of boats which fly the sigil now as well.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Considering the nature of what Searchlight represents, I could see plenty of people utilizing the symbol of the town to indicate where safety would be, or where they fled to.\u00a0 The painted version looks like chalk on a wall, but there’s something about it that seems so much more enriching and invigorating.\u00a0 It feels like hope.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n And of course, who could forget a phone background.<\/p>\n
